This 1770 Revolutionary-era house was home for a time to both Ralph Waldo Emerson (whose grandfather had it built) and Nathaniel Hawthorne; Henry David Thoreau was a guest of Hawthorne's. The house is now owned by The Trustees of Reservations and is open to the public.[121] Photo: Midnightdreary, CC BY-SA 3.0, via Wikimedia Commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Old_Manse_from_side.jpg)
